Welcome to the VladXiDonocracy. Cartoon for Dutch newspaper Trouw.

#Trump #Putin #XiJinping #HumanRights #democracy

Cartoon showing a monument with golden statues of Trump, Putin and Xi Jinping, each holding up 1/3 of the world. The pedestal of the monument reads:'World Order. Est. MMXXVI'. Riot police stand around, looking menacing, while people fearfully walk around the monument. On the side of the pedestal graffiti reads 'Democracy + human rights'. A woman is running away, having dropped a can of spray paint on the ground; she is being chased by two riot police men waving batons. In the background, a man is pushing a garbage container with the UN logos and the EU flag in it.

How to be a modern autocrat. Cartoon for Dutch newspaper Trouw: https://www.trouw.nl/cartoons/tjeerd-royaards~bcb45712/

#democracy #dictators #leadership

Cartoon showing 4 big steps, with small white men trying to climb up the giant steps. A big sign reads 'How to be a modern autocrat - training course'. The first step has a sign that reads 'Be a narcissist'; the little men on this step are gazing into mirrors. The second step has a sign that reads 'Deny reality'; the little men on this step are doing a quiz. The question on the screen is 'Climate change is A: Real B: Fake'. The contestants all choose the answer 'fake'. The third step has a sign that reads 'point the blame'; a little man on this step is directing riot police, who are driving a migrant family over the edge, into a giant waste bin that is already filled with people carrying signs 'See the earth' and 'human rights'. The fourth and final step on the ladder has a sign 'Grab power' and a red chair, place on a red carpet.

holy fuck. the pro-russian government in Georgia resorted to using highly dangerous and harming chemical weapon that was created and used during WW1 against protesters https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/czrk7g50e1po

if this isn't going to be a wake-up call for EU to finally sanction Georgian gov't officials to shit, I don't know what will.

those brave Georgian protesters deserve our solidarity & shoudldn't be forgotten 🤍❤️
